As a beekeeper with more than 20 hives and a bumblebees nest close to them: Thank you

I once had a praying mantis attack me cause I tried cleaning up the pepsi it was drinking

Tassyr
it's just a humble bee...
frogleaper
I was expecting a bird to eat it

Wouldn't the caffeine in monster really fuck em up?
Aylasita
yes
DomZombie
I thought the title was a Transformers reference.
ZeldaShotFirst
Gave the poor thing a fucking heart attack with the energy drink at the beginning. Poor fuzzbee.
Rivalyn
More like melt it's brain. Caffeine is an insecticide.
akzelander
I also tried it once since I didn't have anything else at hand. Didn't work...

What's the lifespan of a bumblebee anyway?
TosokTheRodentHunter
Bees clearly hold the key to in taking that much sugar and not getting diabetes
WigglesTheFox
bumble bees are my favorite animals
Julesvernevienna
My dad and I often did this. He also often nursed injured birds back to health. I miss him
accujimmy
He's all like " I BEE-LIEVE I can fly! I BEE-LIEVE I can touch the SKY!!"
Dominionix
I tried this a week ago, the bee just ended up looking exactly like the one in this vid - coated in sugar water which hardened and it died.
Aylasita
next time just bring it a flower or two it can suck on, works wonders. less messy.

Well without a banana, this scale cannot be accepted.

Good job on the nursing. :) It is pleasant to see such a caring person to the little ones. :)

Question: if insect pollinators contribute $30 billion to the economy, what is the value of a single bee?
teakasaurus
I'm going to say that, objectively, this falls under the 'everything else' category. Therefore the answer to your question is...MasterCard.
kruulik
Probably tremendously little.

It's the accumulative value though. And stop stickin dollar signs on everything! -Bill Hicks
unevenbutter
Before giving him sugar water, did you ask if he had dia-bee-tes?
Nubasaur
didnt even say thanks. fucking bees.
CallMeMarty
That looks like a big bee.
Zigor22
"Looking a lot more active all of a sudden" probably just pissed you're messing with him.
Phatplat
He was just a diabetic
VigorousButtstuff
Snow Cone syrup works well actually.
VigorousButtstuff
(Source: I rescued one at a Zoo by borrowing my daughter's snow cone and putting a little bit of syrup on the pavement. I got pictures.)
Aylasita
What they need is sunlight, to charge. And a nice little flower to drink from too works wonders. This was like all I did my whole choldhood.
Aylasita
And still do, I love bummies :) and they so often just "fall down"
Cataleast
"Bummies"! That's bloody adorable!
ReverendShitlord
You have to heat water to dissolve sugar in it readily.
knarlygoat
Simple syrup recipe: 1 part sugar to 1 part water, heat and stir until dissolved. Useful for both alcoholics and bee fanatics apparently.
ReverendShitlord
Dissolve sugar in water, let cool... And you have gripe water as well.
patattack
If you're only doing a 1:1 ratio, it actually doesn't need to be heated..you can just put sugar & water into a jar and shake 'til dissolved!
ProphetOfWhy
Iirc, it should be at least warmish, 70-80°F or so. Cold water will not dissolve the sugar as readily.
patattack
I mean...yeah, *cold* won't work. Room temperature is fine. Heat is necessary if you have more sugar than water, but 1:1 is pretty forgiving
patattack
Warmer makes it easier/faster, but isn't necessary like it would be for, say, 2:1
